Delaware Agency Accepts StormNET

The Delaware Division of Soil and Water Conservation has accepted StormNET by Boss Intl. for use in performing storm water management calculations in accordance with the state's sediment and storm water regulations.

"We are pleased that StormNET has been accepted by the state of Delaware and that it easily passed their NRCS TR-20 benchmark test," said Chris Maeder, senior technical engineer for Boss Intl. "This approval means that a client can use StormNET for storm water projects in Delaware with the confidence that their designs will be accepted by state agencies."

"We initially sought approval for StormNET based upon the request of a potential client," said Jim Petranek, senior account manager for Boss Intl. "We're all excited about being placed upon the state's list of approved hydrology model."

Before being accepted, the results from StormNET had to match a test case provided by the Division of Soil and Water Conservation. "Our software contains multiple computational engines, including the NRCS TR-20 methodology," Maeder said. "This means that matching the benchmark case within a fraction of a percent wasn't an issue for StormNET. Our software performs the same calculations as the NRCS TR-20 model, but our enhanced interface drastically reduces the time needed for model development."
